DES-1210-28/ME:5#
enable admin
Purpose To promote user level privileges to administrator level privileges.
Syntax
enable admin
Description
The enable admin command enables a user to be granted
administrative privileges on to the Switch. After logging on to the
Switch, users have only ‘user’ level privileges. To gain access to
administrator level privileges, the user may enter this command. The
system then prompts for an authentication password. Possible
authentication methods for this function include TACACS,
TACACS+, RADIUS, user defined server groups, local enable (local
account on the Switch), or no authentication (none). Because
TACACS does not support the enable function, the user must create
a special account on the server host which has the username
‘enable’, and a password configured by the administrator that will
support the ‘enable’ function. This function becomes inoperable
when the authentication policy is disabled.
Parameters None.
Restrictions Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To enable administrator privileges on the Switch:
DES-1210-28/ME:5# enable admin
Command: enable admin
Success!
